Can I sell a house with foundation problems in St. Louis?
Yes. St. Louis is notorious for foundation issues due to our clay soils and older housing stock. Whether you have stair-step cracks in your brickwork, a basement wall that is bowing inward, or floors that are noticeably sloping, you can sell your home without making these expensive repairs. We buy houses with severe foundation and structural damage for cash, taking the burden of fixing it off your shoulders.
Why is it hard to sell a house with foundation damage traditionally?
Most traditional buyers rely on bank financing (like FHA, VA, or conventional loans) to purchase a home. If an inspector finds major foundation issues, the lender will usually refuse to fund the loan until the foundation is fully repaired and certified by a structural engineer. This means your sale can fall through at the last minute, forcing you to either pay $15,000 to $40,000+ out of pocket for repairs, or start the selling process all over again.
Do I need to hire a structural engineer?
No. When you sell to us, you do not need to hire a structural engineer, pay for soil testing, or get bids from foundation repair companies like Woods Basement Systems or Helitech. We have our own team evaluate the property. We understand how to calculate the repair costs internally, so you don't have to spend a dime just to figure out what's wrong.
How fast can we close?
Because we pay cash and don't rely on bank financing, the condition of the foundation doesn't slow us down. We can close on your timeline—whether that's in 7 days or 60 days. You get to walk away from the property and the structural headaches with cash in hand.
